Dear Francis,
I wouldn't know as the information which went with the request was rather scarce. The places I found might give a clue to the answer. And I hope that the inquirer can do something useful with the information.
It could also be the situation as I wrote privately to Ann (see following message) and then my answer was a non-answer.
>>>Dear Ann,
It could of course also be that your client has pronounced the name badly and that he/she meant the 'University of Hasan'. Unfortunately Hasan (or Hassan), son-in-law (and later called brother) of Mohammed, is the first islamic caliph recognized by the Shi'ites, but also by the sunnites. And there may be many universities called after him!
